Lunacy
A video reportage on tv showing the football fans making a violent disorder in a city pushed me to write this verse.
A stadium is packed. A football match has started.
Thousands of eyes, with animation, are following intently the stupid ball with the highest concentration. Nerves on the stretch - then and there - intensity of...

Light of your love
About the death of a loved one. Dedicated to my friends.
Like a ship that passes in the night you again come in my dreams by night.
But, alas, the dreams last not so long - they’re carried with the morning breeze away at dawn.
Vanishing you...

MY RHYME
This poem is about my love for poetry. inspiration came to me whilst I was re-reading Romeo and Juliet. I fell in love with Shakespear's rhymes, they mattered more to me than the story...
My Rhyme:
My playground, my mirror, my vision
My gift, my offering , my contribution
My doubts, my regrets, my never-absent fears
My frowns, my laughter, my ever-flowing tears
My symetry, my perfection, in well-constructed sentences
My anger, my bitterness,...

Zuva
About her. Inspired by her.
Her glistening eyes had caught his attention.
He had asked, "who's that next to you?"

The Acrobat
A divorced woman that begins dating again.
High above the world she walks,
an acrobat.
She balances her supple frame
on the taut wire of hopes and dreams
and for a moment in time
she sets aside
her duties and responsibilities
that have deferred and delayed
the longing hidden deep within
inhibiting her...

The Acrobat 2
A divorced woman going out on her first date after many years.
High above the world she walks,
an acrobat.
She balances her supple frame
on the taut wire of hopes and dreams
and for a moment in time
she sets aside
her duties and responsibilities
that have deferred and delayed
the longing hidden deep within
inhibiting her...

Perfectly Me
I never wanted to be up here, On this golden pedestal where you placed me. Your gifts are unwelcome. This crown hurts my head. Sugar sweet I never claimed to be.
Please take me down...

Deprived
Deeper then the bottom of the ocean.
You hear noise,
I hear the dolphin's cry.
It's tragic to be so shallow,
Shallow like you.
You only see problems,
No beauty in sight.
I look into my baby's beautiful eyes.
Draw inspiration, become...

The Real You
Take a deep slow breath,
Just let yourself go
Far beyond what you've seen
And what you know.
Pay attention to the sounds
Of unfamiliar cries in the distance,
This now feels so near.
You feel THE SELF...yourself.
The voices you hear
Are...

Lifes Questions
Standing on the edge,
Frozen in time.
What's the safest bet,
Your life or mine.
I try and listen for an answer,
Maybe something from above.
Do I pray to the father?
Promise my soul, my love.
Or do I fly?
Can I...
